What is the Sign PDF tool?
Sign PDF lets you drop a handwritten signature onto a contract, form or letter without printing anything. Upload the PDF, then either upload a transparent-background PNG of your signature, draw a new one in the workspace, or type your name in a signature-style font.
Position the signature exactly where it needs to go — use a preset corner or drag it pixel-perfect on the live preview — and download a signed PDF ready to send back. The rest of the document stays untouched and remains a real PDF, not a flattened image.
How to sign a PDF
- Upload the PDF you need to sign and pick the page where the signature should appear.
- Provide your signature: upload a PNG, draw it with your mouse or trackpad, or type your name and let us style it.
- Drag the signature to fine-tune the position, set the size, then click 'Convert & download' for the signed PDF.
Why use our Sign PDF tool?
- Three ways to provide a signature: upload, draw, or type.
- Drag the signature anywhere on the page for pixel-perfect placement, or snap to a preset corner.
- Signs the page you choose without rasterising the rest of the document.
- Works on multi-page PDFs — pick the exact page or apply to all pages.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is this a legally binding electronic signature?
It's a visual signature — the same kind that scanning and pasting a handwritten signature produces. For contracts that require certified e-signatures (eIDAS, ESIGN), use a dedicated service that issues a signed audit trail.
Does the PDF stay editable for me?
The signed page is a regular PDF page with your signature as an embedded image. The rest of the document is untouched.
What format should my signature image be?
A PNG with a transparent background works best. JPGs work but bring a white box with them. The built-in 'draw' and 'type' modes always produce transparent backgrounds.
